A '''Repel''' is an item which lets the {{player}} walk a certain number of steps without encountering Pokémon with a lower level than the first member in the player's party. It is manufactured by [[Silph Co.]], and is sold in most Poké Marts. Its design is similar to that of an aerosol can and is similar to insect repellent. It is available in three strengths. It is the base of the [[Repel trick]].

===Effect===
When used from the [[Bag]] in the overworld, it prevents certain [[wild Pokémon]] from appearing for 100 steps:
* In [[Generation I]], and from [[Generation VI]] onwards, this applies to wild Pokémon with a lower [[level]] than the first member of the [[party]].
* From [[Generation II]] to {{gen|V}}, this applies to wild Pokémon with a lower level than the first non-[[fainting|fainted]] member of the party.
In {{game3|Black and White|Pokémon White|s}}, this item does not prevent wild Pokémon from appearing in the [[White Forest]].
Starting in {{B2W2}}, if the player still has more of this item when the effect wears off, the game will automatically ask the player whether they want to use another one immediately.
In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, it prevents [[hidden encounter]]s; it does not prevent [[symbol encounter]]s or [[wanderer]]s.
